Equally important is that rideshares are not practical in a lot of small towns and rural America more generally. I have no need for a rideshare, but I do feel sorry for those who live in the middle of nowhere without a CAR of their own.

Perfect for car jousting lol!

The Ford truck is neat, never seen a pic of one of those...I've seen a few pics of the VW ones around the 'net, here's one hauling pipe and one that is out to pasture.

I haven't read through everything but I saw sales comparisons.. Don't all new entries come out of the gate pretty hot? I think the Escalade and 'Gator numbers are pretty impressive not only besting the "competition" but the Escalade is the oldest by a country mile. Pretty much Escalade. The Navigator is the only true competition when it comes to a vehicle THAT size.

Reminds me of the VW Typ 2 half cab trucks used for lumber or pipe hauling.

I like using Uber occasionally when I’m going to dinner or a concert or other event downtown in an area without convenient parking...not something I’d use daily, but a few times a month.. For vacations, I could see using Uber esp. in places where I wouldn't rent a car.

If I had any Photoshop skillz I'd love to come up with what a 2019 regular cab pickup would look like in the 1 seater narrow cab form...

My two current workspace desktop backgrounds on my Mac... local pics....one downtown Cleveland and the Cuyahoga River from the air, and the other Headlands State Beach and Lake Erie...

Escalade Kindergartner, Escalade Awkward Teen, and Escalade Senior In High School. That way, the halo effect of the big boy stretches downward.

Prolly go to my grave having never used any of them. I think I’ve been in 2-3 taxis & 1 limo. Plus the ‘64 Sedan de Ville I hired for my wedding ?

Confirmation from the photographer- the Ford was a local lumber delivery truck. Pretty cool in a 'blunt instrument' sort of way. If you note the VW was a production pickup but it's cut left of center, whereas the Ford was built 'cut' right of center- a LOT more load area on the Ford, aside from the wider width overall. VW added a cheapie extra 'windshield' to take up the width, instead of a new piece of (flat) glass. The Ford is on a 1-ton chassis and also has a 'pickup bed' below deck. The VW is very light duty- should probably stick to hay bales rather than steel.

Nah, just for fun...though I am thinking of buying a lake house a few years down the road. I would like a single story house w/ more garage space in the future,, either on Lake Erie or close by.

Yup other than for work, I would rather drive myself than use an Uber, Lyft or taxi.

It was a beautiful Sunday for a Sunday drive...went out this afternoon up to Lake County and it was Pontiac Sunday..saw a sharp black w/ gold trim '77-78 Trans Am, and 2 min later a sharp gold '77/78 Trans Am. In a small town at a garage/resto business there was a black '63 Grand Prix sitting on flat tires w/ 8 lug wheels, parked next to a primered '66 Tempest 2dr. Saw a sharp mid 80s Trans Am in a driveway, a dark red '05-06 GTO, a silver Solstice top down, and a sharp two-tone green '77 Bonneville Brougham 4dr. Also saw a clean red '68 Camaro and a gold '65 Dodge Monaco 2dr ht.

Was out for a Sunday drive up in Lake County and going to open houses and happened to turn a corner and see this Frank Lloyd Wright beauty... needs a '50s car in the carport. The Karl Staley House in N. Madison, Oh

Wait - isn't a mere 500 units equal to "no one buys them" ??

I have said many times, Cadillac needs a V edition. Escalade options that Cadillac should be doing: Escalade V Sport Escalade V Escalade Limo Edition. Just think of no 2nd seat, 3rd seat is your prime seating with plenty of leg room. Escalade Custom = Maybach. Yup Money left on the table.
